Maxymilliano:The truth is that the ban was never really enforced. The ban did not stop or even reduce the importation of textiles at all. It was just an avenue for the ever corrupt customs officials to make so much money in the form of bribes; moneys which should have accrued to the government as duties. With the lifting of the ban, at least a chunk of those moneys received by the customs guys would get to the government.... and this govt is in desperate need of revenue. Devising means of tackling the corrupt customs officials and also blocking our porous borders is a step that should be considered first before the ban. For the mean time, the government can collect duties on the imported fabrics, a very high duty can be considered as an alternative first before the right structures are put in place for a proper ban. 72 Likes 1 Share |

So all the textiles mills, where billions were borrowed from the bank of industry to revive them, will now go to sleep again. By the way, how was this ban lifted? No minister or FEC meeting. Are we now running a one man executive? Tomorrow APC almajiris will come here and complain about tooth picks, you are about to kill thousands of jobs. 36 Likes 4 Shares |

obailala: Trash it's clearly shows that u lack common basis economic analysis. If your government is desperately in need of revenue, lifting ban on importation is it the best solution to income generator ? If importation is higher than exportation what do u think it will result to ? Don't you think it's will definitely befall government revenue or income generation. We are talking of how government will boost our economy through diversification . If government encourage small scale industry and we start exporting to other country who will benefit most? Is'nt not Nigeria government....... Must we rely on importation ? Another setback forward change indeed Nigeria has enter one chance 62 Likes 5 Shares |

Do you really wear Nigerian textile? The Local businesses that lacks funding. What we need is foreign direct investment, improve what we have on ground, we can turn those small business into a bigger one. Nigerians believe that whatever is made in Nigeria is inferior, how would the local business grow? We don't even have made in Nigerian Original louis vuitton scandals. The global economy is moving very fast so we cannot start producing now what we know will not be beneficial to the world. However i expect them to ban importation of frozen birds in the next one year. calebo101: 2 Likes |

I really don't understand it when they say there was ban on importation of furniture and textile. What kind of furniture and textile are they talking about. Is it the foreign furniture that adorns government houses, homes of politicians and the elite? Is it the foreign office furniture I see in offices? Was there truly a ban before now? What do they mean by textile? Cos as far as I kn, almost everything we wear is imported. In as much as I may not support this policy, I think there was never a ban on these items. On the contrary, it was a pseudo ban. And as a result such items were not dutiable, but were still allowed to be imported, duties collected and pocketed by customs with percentages being sent to oga politicians. In all, I think this is to stem corruption in customs. Now FG will comfortably ask for duties for all these textile and foreign furniture we see. 10 Likes |

This is indeed a sad day for us in this country. It should indeed be declared a day of mourning. How can a government who claim to be responsible be toying with the future of her citizens. It appears that we have finally entered one chance bus. Nigeria from this has become a dumping ground. JEJ rejected this when he was asked to embrace it. Now the change agents whom themselves are not changed brought it back. May God save us from this confused changers. 5 Likes 1 Share |
